New Chargers edge-rusher Khalil Mack made quite an impression on his new team in Los Angeles’ season opener against the Las Vegas Raiders. The veteran had three sacks, one quarterback hit, and one quarterback hurry, and he was pretty much unblockable a lot of time in conjunction with pass-rushing bookend Joey Bosa.
Against the Chiefs on Thursday night, Mack wanted to get on the board again in a hurry, and he did. With 5:19 left in the first quarter, the Chargers presented Patrick Mahomes with what looked like a six-man blitz. This would seem unwise, as Mahomes tore the Arizona Cardinals’ blitz packages up to a point where we had to put Arizona defensive coordinator Vance Joseph in our list of the worst coaching decisions of Week 1.
